Travel >O'keefe Plaza Hotel New Orleans Hotels
334 O'keefe Avenue, New Orleans, LA | Directions 7011229.952021 -90.073688
Neighborhoods: French Quarter - CBD, Central Business District
Great location – It was a great location for both stadium and Bourbon Street. We were close enough to walk to everything, but yet away enough for quiet nights. I will definately stay there again on my next trip to New Orleans!
Good – The location is just right for the Mardi Gras crowd, the store within the hotel is reasonable and the breakfast is good.
Perfect – Location was good and the breakfast at the hotel was perfect. Staff was very friendly, the front desk informed us...
Amazing service – I am a salesman that travels at least 90% of the year, Upon my stay in New Orleans. I found a gem of a hotel named the O'Keefe Plaza Hotel. Upon talking to the staff and management I learned that the hotel was once a Sleep Inn Hotel. I have stayed in Sleep Inns before and have never got the great treatment that i received at this hotel. The General Manager Jay Vadhar was very friendly and assisted me personally with some requests that i had for parking arrangements for my trailer that contained all my products for work. He arranged security to look after my trailer over night, and didn't charge me anything additional. This type of personal treatment goes way beyond what any other hotel manager has done for me in over 18 years of sales. I will definetly stay at the O'Keefe Plaza again.
Professional – We were very, very pleased with this hotel and I am so glad we ended up staying there. The staff were wonderful, very professional and helpful.
Fine hotel – Good location and a fine hotel. Excellent service and the room wasn't that bad - nice shower room.
Pleasantly Suprised – Stayed at the Okeefe Plaza Hotel during Jazz Fest and was pleasantly surprised. I had booked my room late, and didn't have many hotel options; luckily, I found this hotel! Both the lobby and the room were clean, none of the funky odors people have complained about (even in a smoking room, it didn't reek of ashtray). Service was great during check in/out and the one time I had to get my keys reprogrammed. The walk to the Quarter was a quick one and a safe one at night. Parking was a little expensive ($35/night since it was a special event), but I was informed of the parking fees when I made my reservation. Never checked out the free breakfast; it ended at 9am, and I was never up that early.
Will gladly stay on any return – My husband and I traveled to NOLA for the super bowl parties on Bourbob st. Our choice of the O" keefe proved to be the perfect location.We were a three block walk to Bourbon St. Our room was comfortable and clean. The staff was very helpful, helping with directions and recommendations on restaurants. We will gladly stay at the O'Keefe on any return visit!
I'd stay here again – After reading the reviews, I was worried about staying here. I shouldn't have been. There were no bedbugs, the towels and bedding were clean, and the room was quite spacious compared to other New Orleans hotels. I go to NOLA frequently and, while I stay in the plush hotels occasionally, I'm never in my room much so I usually look for location and value. This had both. Although it's in the CBD and not the quarter, I was going for the game and it was very convenient to the Dome (and it still wasn't a long walk to Canal St.!)
....! It had a fridge & microwave (rare in NOLA hotels!) and a decent bed. I'd stay again...
Great location – The location was GREAT - literally 2 blocks from Bourbon and close to everything you need. We walked EVERYWHERE

Washington, D.C. – Today, Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, Democratic Caucus Vice Chairman Joe Crowley, Appropriations Committee Ranking Member Nita Lowey, and Congressman Rush Holt met with President U Thein Sein of Burma and his delegation.
"President Thein Sein's visit to the United States is a recognition of the steps that have been taken to promote democracy and economic and political reform," Pelosi said. "It is essential that the appropriate political reforms move forward, prior to the 2015 election, so that Aung San Suu Kyi and the National League of Democracy Party can fully participate in a democratic process. In addition, there are serious concerns about the escalation of the military attacks in the Kachin State and the violence against the Rohingya Muslim community. It is my hope that this visit will be productive in advancing peace, democracy, and stability in Burma."

The most popular outing from Jorhat is to the World Heritage Site of MAJULI. It is often described as the largest inhabited river island in the world, but erosion in recent years has thrown that claim into doubt. Regardless of its precise status, Majuli is a fascinating place, largely because of its unique Vaishnavite sattras (Hindu monasteries), though it is also a haven for birdwatchers.
There are 22 sattras – institutions that contain elements of a temple, monastery, school and centre for the arts – on Majuli: each consists of a prayer hall (namghar) surrounded by living quarters for devotees, and ghats for bathing. In a day, you could visit Natun Kamalabari, and 1.5km away, Uttar Kamalabari. The monks will give you tea, and you can sometimes attend prayer meetings. Four kilometres further west at Auniati, another sattra keeps royal artefacts from the Ahom kingdom and has an interesting collection of Assamese handicrafts and jewellery. Bengenati, 4km east of Auniati, was built in the early seventeenth century, while Shamaguri, 6km beyond Bengenati, is renowned for its clay and bamboo masks. Bongaori, 8km beyond Shamaguri, and Dakhinpat, 5km further south, are also worth a visit.

Rafael Benitez has confirmed David Luiz will miss Sunday's trip to Brentford in the FA Cup with a recurrence of an ankle injury.
The Brazilian was a substitute in Wednesday's 0-0 draw at Swansea but ended the game limping and will now be a doubt for the midweek trip to Reading. He will join the suspended Eden Hazard on the sidelines, but John Terry could return to the starting line-up.
'At the moment we have David Luiz who will not be available,' Benitez reported. 'Terry has been training again so he is fine, maybe he will have a chance. He was doing really well in the training sessions and was on the bench just in case we needed him at the end. He is doing well, progressing and will have a chance to play.
'The rest of the team we have to check tomorrow how they are. David Luiz will not be available, two players in the African Cup of Nations, so we cannot rest too much but cannot push them too much.'
Elaborating on the situation with David Luiz, Benitez explained the defender was used on Wednesday after missing our win against Arsenal, but felt fine to play in Wales.
'He had a problem before. He had treatment, didn't play the other game and we were protecting him,' the manager said. 'I was talking with medical staff and him before the game about whether we could take the risk.
'I waited until the end and didn't want to risk him but we had to play him and after 10 or 15 minutes he felt something and we had to move him to the middle of the park. He won't be fit for this game and it will be difficult for him to be ready for Reading.'
Benitez knows we face a tough challenge against League One Brentford, who will be keen to earn local bragging rights at Griffin Park.
'I have seen some clips and have some notes. I have seen some games and was talking with the scouts so we know they are doing well,' he confirmed.
'It will be a tough game, it's a massive game for them and they will be pushing, playing between long and short passes and they try to win second balls. They're an interesting team and doing well.
'Obviously we play away, and it's a cup competition. It will be different and our approach has to be different. The pitch is not the best, totally different, but it's a game we play against a close team which will be a massive motivation for them too.'
Benitez is hoping his side can bounce back quickly after Capital One Cup disappointment in Swansea, and despite the obvious issues of fatigue, believes a game coming quickly afterwards can be beneficial to the players.
'Everybody is really disappointed because we thought we could be there, scoring goals, not conceding goals. We were doing the right things, even in the first game against Swansea we were on top and creating chances, so everyone is disappointed because it's an opportunity we have lost,' he said.
'They are professionals and know we have a difficult situation with a game each three days. It's good when you lose because you have another game in three days. Now we have another competition, another challenge and we can move forward quickly.
'As a top side you have to win when you play against a team in another division. Our pressure is because we are a top side. We will try to progress as much as we can in every competition.'

builder is not involved because after the first two years coverage is provided
by Tarion directly.

If you're reading this, you're in a club of which no one wants to be a member. The club of those who haven't yet gotten a present for their mom for Mother's Day — which is this Sunday. Never fear, here are 10 quick and easy last minute gift suggestions to steer you away from the Valley of Guilt and Disappointment.
1. Homemade gift certificates: Grab a pen, some colored paper and start creating gift certificates she can redeem for a lunch, a visit, a shopping trip, a certain number of phone calls, whatever your mother enjoys. Maybe she wants you to weed the garden, throw that in as well.
2. A gesture of love: There are lots of reasons you love your mom. Write some of them on small pieces of paper, fold up the papers and send her a box with the papers inside. She'll be opening them for hours, stopping to smile as she unfolds each one. Classic.
3. Call her up and sing a silly song: It could be the theme to Sesame Street or a song your family sang while driving on family vacations. Be prepared for a scream if you launch into "99 Bottles of Beer."
4. Flowers: Predictable? Duh. Lovely? Of course. A good last minute gift idea? Yes. Here's a list of your favorite florists in Montclair and Essex County.
5. Dedicate a book in her honor: Did your mom read to you? Of course she did. Dedicate a book in her honor at the library. This is a great way to show your love, to your mom and to other readers.
6. Sponsor a dog in your mother's name: Does your mom have a dog or cat? You can get her another companion friend without actually bringing one home. Sponsors get a certificate when "their" dog is adopted. Make your mom happy while helping dogs, it's a win-win.
7. Chocolates, candies or other sweets: Say no more. This is a quick and easy gift for last minute shoppers. It's a special day, tell her not to worry and have some decadence.
8. Cook something special: If you can't get a reservation at your mom's favorite restaurant, cook her dinner at your house or maybe just whip up a special treat like these .
9. You know Mom best: Is your mom a super cook? Well, maybe get her some high end knives or a trip to her favorite restaurant. Is she a marathoner? How about a fresh new pair of running shoes? Think about it.
10. Give her a memory book: There are many online services that will help you turn those files and folders of photos into books that your mother can show to her less computer savvy friends. This gift may be the best, but is fairly time-consuming and probably won't be ready in time — just include a note in your mom's card. Try a site like Snapfish to get your project underway.

Left Hand bat
Ashes Tests: 31
Captain: 21
Record: 7 wins, 4 losses, 10 draws
Off the Mark
Joe Darling is widely regarded as the man who led Australia back to greatness. The well-respected batsman represented Australia in 31 Ashes encounters, and went on four English tours.
His career exploded in 1897/98, when Darling became the first player in history to register three centuries in a series. Interestingly, Darling would never reach triple figures again, but still managed to finish his Ashes career with 1,632 runs at 28.56.
His Stint
Darling began his tenure as Australian captain in 1899 on the famed tour to England. Before the series had even started, Darling shocked many by selecting a youthful Victor Trumper in a squad of 14. The move will go down as an unrivaled masterstroke.
With the five Test series scheduled to feature three day matches, many people thought draws would be the most likely result. And they would be right for the most part; except for the second fixture at Lord's. With Grace finally retiring at the age of 50, Trumper's arrival signaled a changing of the guard. The effect couldn't have been more pronounced, with the youngster hitting 135 in his second match, as Australia coasted to a 10 wicket win. Although Australia would find themselves in trouble throughout the series, rain and the batting heroics of Trumper and Noble saved them and sealed an historic 1-0 win.
The second Test in 1901 at the MCG was another famed occasion. 25 wickets fell on the first day on a horrendously sticky wicket. Darling decided to reverse the order in a hope the pitch would dry out. Despite being 5/48 at stumps, the final two wickets added 225 to set up another big win.
In 1902, Darling led Australia to another famous win; this time at Old Trafford. In a tipsy-topsy affair, Darling posted a half-century as Australia reached 299. A century to Jackson looked to have England back on top, and victory for the hosts looked certain when Australia was dismissed for just 86. Chasing just 124, England looked on track when they reached 0/37 at lunch. Hubris looked to have set in, and the hosts crumbled to lose 7/44 to set up a grandstand finish. Needing eight runs to win, and with only one wicket in hand, the much maligned Fred Tate strode out to face the red hot Jack Saunders. The number 11 stood no chance. Game, set, match Australia.
His Legacy
Joe Darling retired as one of the great leaders of the so called Golden Era of Australian cricket. While previous captains appeared solely interested in financial gain, Darling established an ethos within the team that cricket was about winning. His style was by no means autocratic, with Darling often employing a leadership group to help make the big decisions.
He would go down as one of the most respected captains ever. Darling was not afraid to discipline his teams in a bid to develop what is now regarded as the first steps towards professionalism. Darling stood several players down for being late to a match, and received no objections when he lowered the team's wages to accommodate Trumper's position in the side. Only a truly respected figure could get away with such a thing in the early 1900's.
Darling became the most successful leader at the time, after having led Australia to back to back series wins in England. The team had finally become a batting force, while its bowling never wavered.
Played and Missed
Joe Darling became the first Australian cricketer to be waxed in Madame Tussaud's.
Darling was the first Australian captain to record a pair in a Test match.
In 1897/98, Darling became the first player to bring up their century with a six.
In the same year, he became the first player to score 500 runs and three centuries in a series.
In 202 first-class matches, Darling only managed one wicket.

Why are Skin Conditions Important?
A pet's skin and coat are one of the most visible signs of vitality and health. An animal's skin is very sensitive – especially for dogs and cats. Although their skin secretes natural oil that helps to keep coats shiny and skin moisturized, an animal's skin is in contact with the environment, and they lack the protection that clothes give us. Although they have extensive hair coats, fleas, allergies and parasites can wreak havoc on the skin.

Home owner
Love the Honeywell Pet CleanAir purifier. My house does not have the pet smell, when I run my purifier. I also smoke and my purifier really helps with that odor. My house had an odor when I would walk in the door, after going to town. Now when I open my door after being gone awhile, I don't smell anything. It's wonderful. My family has even noticed it. It was a very affordable machine also. Thank you so much for the help with my odor problem.

Missing: Joel Pineiro's Grounders, Control
A few years ago, Joel Pineiro reinvented himself as an earth-scorching sinkerball pitcher possessing exquisite command. That skill set made him nearly a five-win pitcher for the Cardinals in 2009 and earned him a two-year, $16 million contract with the Angels prior to last season. Pineiro pitched well for the Halos in 2010 in between a nearly two-month DL stint for a strained oblique, but he's not burning worms or being as stingy with the walks in 2011.
The 32-year-old righty, who missed most of April with right shoulder tightness, is getting fewer grounders and issuing more free passes as the season progresses:
April/May: 53.1 ground ball percentage, 1.56 walks per nine innings pitched
June: 49.1 GB%, 3.3 BB/9
July: 39 GB%, 3.66 BB/9
Pineiro gets precious few strikeouts (3.9 per nine innings this season, tied with Pineiro's mound opponent on Thursday, Brad Penny, for second-lowest among starters). Without scores of ground balls and great control, he's going to get drubbed.
So, what's the cause of Pineiro's sharply lower ground ball rate and his higher walk rate? You might think it's his sinker, but that's not the biggest reason. Pineiro is getting a lower (but not drastically lower) percentage of grounders with the pitch, while still throwing strikes:
Pineiro's sinker, by month
April/May: 55.1 GB%, 62.7 strike percentage
June: 48.6 GB%, 64.1 strike%
July: 50 GB%, 63.1 strike%
His high-70s curveball and mid-80s slider are different stories, though:
Pineiro's breaking stuff, by month
April/May: 53.8 GB%, 64.2 strike%
June: 53.6 GB%, 67.4 strike%
July: 26.1 GB%, 58.9 strike%
Pineiro's location with his breaking pitches has been way off in July, and batters are often lofting those offerings into the air. Take a look at his curveball and slider location through June:
In the strike zone, and at the knees. Now, look at where Pineiro is throwing his breaking pitches this month:
He's missing low or to the glove side a lot, and when he puts in in the zone, it's higher and over the fat part of the plate.
When Pineiro is inducing weak choppers and giving up few base on balls, he's a quality starter in spite of his microscopic strikeout rate. Without those virtues, he's a batting practice pitcher. To get back on track, he needs to pound hitters at the knees with his breaking stuff.

Signals out of the ultra-secretive executive suite at Apple increasingly point to an announcement soon of a dividend increase, buyback or another form of capital distribution to shareholders. The latest came from an analyst report Sunday.
"While trying to extract information from AAPL (Apple) management is like squeezing 'water from a rock,' we did speak with AAPL CFO (Peter Oppenheimer) this past Friday and found the conversation helpful," wrote ISI analyst Brian Marshall in a note to clients Sunday. "We touched upon a variety of topics, including capital allocation framework."
(Read More: Apple and Samsung: Frenemies for Life)
After speaking with Oppenheimer, ISI's Marshall recommended back to the company in Sunday's report that it increases its current 3-year allocation plan amount to $60 billion from $45 billion. His plan, which would use 50 percent of the firm's annual free cash flow, puts two-thirds of the cash toward a dividend and the rest to buy back shares.
Marshall's conversation followed a rare press release Thursday from Apple, which came in response to a call from activist investor David Einhorn for the world's largest technology company to issue preferred stock.
"By early last year, Apple's cash balance had built to a point beyond what we needed to run our business and maintain flexibility to take advantage of strategic opportunities, so we announced a plan to return $45 billion to shareholders over three years," stated the company in response to Einhorn.

Apple's stock climbed 5 percent last week to $474.98, taking an extra hop following the release of that statement. The shares currently sport a dividend yield of 2.2 percent. Marshall's plan would raise that to 3 percent.
"We are starting to field calls from 'smart money' investors who are building positions in AAPL at current levels based on the belief that: 1) AAPL has already made the transition to a 'value play' from a growth story, and 2) a favorable capital allocation update will be the next catalyst for shares," wrote the analyst, who has a $600 price target on the stock.

- Per the BSA: "You should read the merit badge pamphlet on the subject." Pamphlets (books) are at local Scout Shops and online at ScoutStuff.org.
- "Get a signed Merit Badge application from your Scoutmaster." An online, printable Word doc file version is available.
- Hiking merit badge is on the Eagle Scout required list (requirement 3.j.). It is one choice of a group of three merit badges on the list.
Requirement resources
- All Scouts should consider starting Hiking merit badge immediately upon joining a Boy Scout troop for the following reasons:
- The first four requirements are relatively easy for most Scouts. Completing these allows you to work on requirements 5 and 6.
- The following is a direct quote from the requirements:
- The hikes in requirements 5 and 6 can be used in fulfilling Second Class Rank (2a) and First Class Rank (3) rank requirements, but only if Hiking merit badge requirements 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been completed to the satisfaction of your counselor.
- In other words, if you go ahead and knock out the first four requirements early, you'll be able use later hikes to kill two birds with one stone.
- This is an Eagle required merit badge. It generally takes a long time to earn so the faster you get started, the earlier you'll get done.

Nestled in the tip of South Texas near the center of the lower Rio Grande Valley, the city is flanked by Mexico to its southwest and the Gulf of Mexico just 25 miles to its east.
A picturesque 400-foot-wide resaca waterway meanders through this culturally rich community. This subtropical destination features many native wildlife and plant species. The Rio Grande Valley is one of the top birding hot spots in the nation, and thousands of naturalists converge here annually in search of some of the 484 species that have been sighted locally.
This is the home of conjunto (accordion-style, Latin-based) music and features a rich musical heritage with legends such as Narciso Martinez (the father of conjunto music) and Freddy Fender.
San Benito is just minutes from the Free Trade International Bridge at Los Indios, a port of entry to South Texas and a quick route to the Mexican border cities of Matamoros, Reynosa and Valle Hermoso, as well as the interior city of Monterrey. Historical markers are found within the city and area.

Fizzy and fun, "Legally Blonde, the Musical" is disarming. With Elle's overabundance of pink and a perky overload among sorority sisters, it's important message is partially obscured by the fluff. But as the audience is won over, the female empowerment theme comes through loud and clear.
For its current 27th season, Stages St. Louis selected female empowerment as its theme -- first with the intimate memoir "Always, Patsy Cline," closing with iconic Eliza Doolittle in "My Fair Lady" and now presenting the charming Elle Woods and company, vivaciously bringing home the lesson "To thine own self be true."
This high-energy show percolates with interesting characters, and the dynamic Stages ensemble enhances the production with crisp precision dance numbers.
Indeed, the vigorously executed dance numbers are the show's strong suit, and Stages benefits from the Broadway run's associate choreographer Rusty Mowery's recreation. His dancers earned their six-packs with these fast-paced workouts.
Belleville East alumnus Joe Grandy is an exceptionally agile dancer, and was able to show off his moves as Grandmaster Chad and Carlos during Sunday's matinee. He can also be seen as Lowell during some performances.
The musical, which debuted on Broadway in 2007 and is now favored by theater groups across the U.S., is based on the novel by Amanda Brown and the 2001 movie. A UCLA sorority girl is dumped by her social-climbing beau, and she follows him to Harvard Law School in hopes of winning him back. But she discovers that her instincts make her a legal eagle.
The high-spirited cast seems to be having a blast, even the more stiff and staid roles of snooty Vivienne (Shannon O'Boyle) and law professor Callahan (David Schmittou).
Anchoring this musical comedy is Michelle London as Elle. It's not just her uncanny resemblance to Reese Witherspoon, who created the movie character, that makes her convincing. She embodies the Southern California glamour girl with a sweet sincerity. And she can rock a Playboy Bunny outfit as well as a navy pencil skirt.
London is matched by the animated Ben Nordstrom as Emmett, the corduroy blazer-wearing nice guy who falls in love with Elle. He's so likable on stage and they make a darling couple, working together seamlessly.
Other standouts include Heather Jane Rolff as cheerful beautician Paulette and Charlie Williams as her genial UPS guy Kyle. They brought the house down with "Bend and Snap" and "Ireland." Williams' strut drew gales of laughter from the crowd, and he milks it for all it's worth.
Nicolette Hart, who played Brooke Wyndham, the exercise queen whose murder trial takes up the second act, on Broadway, is a marvel in "Whipped into Shape."
The Reim theater setting allows for a sprightly show like this to connect with the audience, because of its accessible staging. The many set changes are a challenge, but Michael Hamilton's smooth direction is breezy and fluid. James Wolk's scenic design is clever and efficient.
The only quibble is that the music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin aren't all that memorable, but this cast sure sells them. "Legally Blonde" elevates the endorphins and hammers the "Can't Judge a Book By Its Cover" point in such winning fashion, one must surrender to the pink.
What: Stages St. Louis presents "Legally Blonde, the Musical"
When: through Aug. 18
Where: Robert G. Reim Theatre at the Kirkwood Community Center, 111 South Geyer Road in Kirkwood.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Jim Kuhnhenn
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Suddenly it's about the deficits. As proposals surface to end the partial government shutdown, raising the nation's line of credit, and abandoning the drive to upend the 3-year-old health care law, Washington's attention is turning to spending and the red ink side of the government's ledger.
A pedestrian walks past the U.S. Treasury Building in Washington on Thursday, as the federal government shutdown continued.
The Associated Press
Deja vu, as they say, all over again.
Deficits have been at the center of past fiscal confrontations. Taming them has proven to be a difficult task, particularly during a recession and a weak recovery. President Obama and congressional Republicans have tried and either failed or ended up with consequences both sides abhor.
But at the center of a deal to reopen the government and temporarily increase the government borrowing limit is a promise for Republicans and Democrats, including the president, to engage in a new round of negotiations to tackle long-term spending and lower deficits that, while falling now, are on a path to increase the government's debt to near-record heights over the next two decades.
Here are some basic questions about the government's fiscal picture.
Q: So, what do the government's accounting books look like right now?
A: During the just completed fiscal year – Oct. 1, 2012 to Sept. 30, 20113 – the government spent more than it received by somewhere between $650 and $700 billion. Typically deficits are measured as a percentage of the national economy, which would make the recent fiscal year's deficit about 4 percent of gross domestic product. That's sizable, but certainly less than the $1 trillion or more deficits early in Obama's presidency which exceeded 10 percent of the size of the economy. The accumulation of deficits are the national debt, which now stands at $16.7 trillion, about 73 percent of GDP.
Q: Why did it reach such heights?
A: When Obama became president, the country was in a recession. That meant companies and individuals weren't generating as much tax revenue for the government as before. What's more, the federal government spent hundreds of billions of dollars to shore up banks during the 2008 financial crisis and Obama ushered through an $800 billion "stimulus" package of spending and tax incentives designed to prime the economy. Deficits had already been increasing under President George W. Bush as Congress enacted two major tax cuts while the nation was fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The result: the red ink climbed to a whopping $1.4 trillion by September 2009.
Q: So, Obama says deficits have been cut in half while he has been president. Is that true?
A: Yes, but it's not all his doing. The economic recovery, though modest and fitful, has resulted in businesses and individuals paying more taxes. And the spigot that rushed out spending in 2008-2009 has been turned off. In addition, the interest on the national debt has been kept low thanks to low rates set by the Federal Reserve, and the government-related mortgage companies of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have made payments to the federal government that have been greater than expected.
Another factor in the lower deficit is the automatic spending cuts that kicked in during March that reduced domestic and defense spending across the board. Those cuts took effect because Republicans and Democrats could not find common ground on a broader budget deal that would have tackled issues such as tax revenue and spending on big benefit programs like Social Security and Medicare.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has projected that if those automatic spending cuts remain in place, deficits would drop to 2 percent of the economy in 2015.
Q: That all seems like good news. Is there still a problem?

By doing this and not working to set percentages or fixed deductions, it allows us to provide the most competitive cash offer quickly and within a timescale to suit. If our valuation is acceptable, we would then work to exchange contracts within your own timeframe which can be as fast or as slow as you require.
Regardless of its condition or location, we guarantee to make a genuine cash offer to purchase your house directly from yourself. Whether your property is derelict or even fire/water damaged, we promise to procure any residence in the UK at the owner's convenience. Simply click Get Offer to arrange a valuation and begin the process of selling your property directly to us. Alternatively, you can call us on 0871 906 0010 and our Customer Service Team will be happy to help.
Why Sell To NHB?
Unlike other methods of selling, we do not take a commission on the sale price and you will receive 100% of your cash offer. We will even pay up to £1,000 towards your legal fees.
There may be a number of reasons for wanting to sell your house to National Homebuyers. Whether you just need a quick house sale or are unable to sell on the open market, we have the perfect solution for you. If you've decided to sell because you are facing repossession, then don't hesitate any longer as our service can operate to such a speed that unlocks your property's equity before it's too late.

Feb 10, 2011
The public's views about federal spending are beginning to change. Across a range of federal programs, Americans are no longer calling for increased spending, as they have for many years. For the most part, however, there is not a great deal of support for cutting spending, though in a few cases support for reductions has grown noticeably. The survey also shows that the public is reluctant to cut spending – or raise taxes – to balance state budgets.
Since June 2009, there have been double-digit declines in the proportions favoring increased federal spending for health care (by 20 percentage points), government assistance for the unemployed (17 points), Medicare (13 points) and veterans' benefits and services (12 points). Fewer Americans also favor increased spending on military defense (down nine points) and environmental protection (seven points).
In two areas in particular – aid for the unemployed and national defense – the public's attitudes toward federal spending have changed dramatically. Currently, as many favor decreasing spending as increasing spending for assistance to the unemployed and national defense. In 2009, far more supported funding increases than decreases for these programs.

Just received this product and took it to the jewelers. The diamond heat test revealed these stones are not genuine diamonds. They do conduct heat, and are certainly not plastic, but the product as advertised is false. That said, the stones look great visually along with the rest of the ring. It has a heavy weight to it as tungsten carbide should. Combined with the low price, I'd say this is still a good buy, as long as you know what you are really purchasing. Don't pass it off, or heaven forbid eventually sell it, as actual diamonds. Take pride with this ring and simply say "They are not blood diamonds."
My soon to be husband was SO happy with this ring for his wedding band! This band has the perfect amount of diamonds to make it stand out, but not look feminine. I couldn't be happier, and neither could he. Do get a half size smaller than normal tho. That was good advice. We did, and it fits nicely. I was SO worried about ordering online, but we are glad we did! Same ring was over $500 at ***** Jewelers.
I purchased this ring for my husband as an anniversary gift and he loves it. It is very beautiful and looks expensive, but the price was just right. I have to send it back because the size was a little off. Can't wait to get it back.
I picked this ring out @ the last minute, 2 days after my boyfriend proposed. Ordered it priority shipping as he wanted to get married @ the end of the following week. It came within 4 days and it was stunning! I couldn't have asked for a better men's band. The day we got married @ the courthouse, the Judge even made a comment "your a very lucky man!" when he asked for the rings.. Thank-you Overstock.com for making everything so simple with quality products and great service.
This ring was a Christmas gift for my husband and he loved it! I got him a size 13 1/2 and it fit him perfectly. This was my second purchase from Overstock and I've been impressed both times.
After reading the reviews I took my chances and ordered the ring. I am very pleased with the ring. It looks better in person, and it fits. Size 14 is hard to find. The ring was very reasonably priced. My only complaint ring does not come in a jewelry box, but a draw string bag.
Got it in the mail today. Looks gorgeous! Fits perfectly! And can't beat the price. Mt fiance loved it! Saw this same ring at*** and they wanted *** for it. Definitely recommend this ring!
I ordered the tungsten carbide comfort-fit diamond band and received it within a week. It surpassed my expectations. It's a beautiful ring. I am getting married in April and my fiance was anxious to see his ring. When I showed it to him, he did not want to take it off. He is very excited and I am super happy with the purchase!
I really shouldn't even be reviewing this ring because I haven't really seen it. After I read the few negative reviews about the ring scratching easily, I decided to just refuse the package with fedx. I ordered a different ring. Retuning was easy, but it has been two weeks and haven't recieved my refund, but I believe in Overstalk it will be refunded soon.
Overstock is awesome to deal with .. First one was to small and that handle it quick and got me the right size. He was very please with his ring and can't wait for the day I put it on his finger to stay.

Austin has the potential to contribute on both medley and freestyle relays. Austin along with the return of Victor Lopez-Cantera will be great replacements for graduating seniors Greg Germain and Trevor Kosmo. We expect big things from Austin as a Hoya."

Firefighters responded to separate fires early Monday morning including one that destroyed a home.
A total of 16 units responded to a house fire just before midnight in the 200 block of Micklejohn on the West Side.
Firefighters found heavy smoke and flames when they arrived, but quickly contained the blaze and kept it from spreading.
The family who lives at the home says the fire started in the back of the house. They made it out safe, but the home is considered a total loss.
Firefighters also battled another blaze at a home on Colton Drive near Broadway. Crews arrived around 11 p.m. and quickly put out the fire.
There were no reported injuries and damage estimates were not released. Fire officials have not said what caused either fire.

decent food, terrible service – I've dined here several times and the food is decent but I've had HORRIBLE service experiences. The first time the restaurant crowded, it took a long time to place an order, and they were out of several items on the menu. The food which we did order was not good, specifically the "Chesapeake Chili" --it tasted like crab meat and BBQ sauce in a cup. Other times the place has seemed significantly understaffed, and service extremely slow. We had a waiter who was serving the entire 2 levels of dining area by himself. We felt terrible, as the service problem seemed to be a staffing issue. On 2 of the 4 visits, I have used Restaurant dot com certificates, presented at the beginning of the meal using a IPhone. This was never a problem in the past, and usually the person taking the certificate has called in to verify the certificate number. In the last dining visit we notified the waitress that we had a certificate from Restaurant dot com, and she said "ok," never asking to see it, or needing verification. At the end of our meal (which we ordered according to our required $100 spending minimum), when the bill was presented we showed the waitress our certificate on IPhone. The waitress said she couldn't accept the electronic version, and that she needed a hard copy. She was extremely rude about the situation, especially given it was her error by not stating that she needed to see the certificate prior to verbally accepting it. She was not willing to compromise, when we asked if she could call the number on the certificate to validate it. We also asked for use of a printer in the restaurant, which she promptly said was "locked away." When we asked to speak to management she said that there was no one there but her, another bartender and the chef. We ended up having to call around to all of our friends to find someone who could print the certificate for us. This was a terrible experience, making everyone in our party never want to return to Gekos. Overall we have had good food, but the service needs a lot of work.
good food – we walked in for Sunday brunch and stood around for 10 minutes before someone asked if we wanted a seat. then after being seated, i had to prompt the waiter to tell us what was on the bruch menu. he informed us it was a buffet style brunch and to serve ourselves. the food was good. they had breakfast and lunch foods. i would go back and hope for better service.
As Southwestern as the Alamo--but tastier. – The Scene
Formerly a Jimmy Buffett theme restaurant, this split-level, four-floor bar and restaurant in Canton offers a funky atmosphere and Southwestern cuisine. The basement has two pool tables, and the bar and top floors have plenty of seating to accommodate patrons. Not surprisingly, geckos and gecko-related paraphernalia adorn the walls.
The Food
Gecko's accurately describes its food as "unique Southwestern." Enjoy coconut-crusted shrimp as an appetizer, then try an intriguing quesadilla with jerk chicken and sweet potato or smoked shrimp. The grilled veggie and three-cheese quesadilla is loaded with peppers, onions, beans and a blend of ricotta, feta and monterey jack cheeses. It's so rich, it should be taxed. Tortilla wraps, like the Mexican and Cheese Steak Wrap, are also delicious. The creamy tequila lime pie is appropriately lush.
One of my FAVORITE places in Bmore – I moved from Baltimore to San Francisco in 2002, and I miss Gecko's so much. Even in the SF Bay Area, where there are 100's of amazing restaurants to choose from, I find myself craving Gecko's. Their margarita with Tobasco (sound gross? Its AMAZING) and their unbelieveable blackened shrimp Caesar salad with pinenuts and feta cheese are my absolute favorites. Great friendly staff, too. I'm so happy to see one of the places from my old 'hood doing well.
Great place for causal dinner – Friendly servers, fast service, and great food. What a nice change from the standard cookie cutter Tex-Mex places in the area. It can be crowded on Sunday for brunch but that's because the buffet is delicious, especially if you like stuffed french toast and fresh homemade muffins.

Is it participating in a terrorist flotilla?
Could it be attending dedication ceremonies to murderers of Jews in Gaza?
Could it be visiting the heads of enemy states?
Or just undermining israels security by your views and your contacts?
No its none of the above its far far worse.

SAN SALVADOR, Dec 1, 2012 (AFP) - Four-year-old Carlos, who makes a lengthy trip every two weeks with his teenage aunt to a special clinic in El Salvador's capital, has no notion of the cruel stigma that comes with his HIV diagnosis.Governments and aid groups across the region are organizing official parades and cultural events Saturday to raise awareness and celebrate World AIDS Day.But in Central America, HIV and AIDS patients carry a burden that is heavier than the medical consequences of the virus that still has no cure.Carlos's aunt, just 16 years old herself, washes and irons clothes to support the pair ever since her sister died of AIDS a year ago. Neither her parents nor Carlos's other grandparents give them any financial help."I would like to go to school or have a formal job," the teenager said, "but there is nobody else to take care of him and I can't think about abandoning him."Tears streaming down her face, she explained that the preschool in their village refused to enroll Carlos because of his HIV status. Carlos is a pseudonym as the family preferred he remain anonymous.More than 3,000 children are infected with HIV in Central America, according to official statistics. Most of them, some 2,180, are in Honduras, but El Salvador is second, with 580 HIV-positive kids.Carlos, a cheerful and active boy, is luckier than many. His twice-monthly visits to the Center of Excellence for Children with Immunodeficiency in San Salvador net him life-saving antiretroviral drugs as well as other important medical care.It is the only clinic of its kind in the country, and Carlos and his aunt have to travel 135 kilometers (84 miles) to get there.With its staff of three doctors and three nurses, it dispenses state-sponsored medical care and drugs to children up to age 18, at no cost. The kids also get psychological counseling, paid for by a private foundation.The center serves some children from Guatemala and Nicaragua as well.As Carlos waited for his treatment on a recent visit, he got a checkup from a dentist.Cartoons of children covered the walls, an attempt to warm up the austere environment of the clinic full of HIV-positive kids.In another cubicle, a 52-year-old woman held an eight-month-old baby with big black eyes who was entertaining herself with some rubber animals as she waited. Older kids waiting nearby were playing on the center's computers.Like many HIV-positive kids, this baby was here with her grandmother."I bring the girl to the hospital, my daughter cannot. She already developed AIDS, and is only 18 years old," the woman told AFP shakily. "My life has changed with pain since I learned that the two are ill."She works at various jobs to support everyone."Many children come with their grandparents because their parents have died and no other family member will take care of them. It's a travesty," said Sandra Ayala, a social worker at the center."Many have suffered contempt or abuse from their own families."Carlos's young aunt said she sometimes doubts she is up to the challenge of raising her nephew on her own.But her reward, she said, comes when Carlos gazes at her with his big, innocent eyes and calls her "mama.""I love him like my son. I'm going to do everything possible to see that he grows and has opportunities," she vowed."It hurts to see the discrimination against him. Neither he, or any child, deserves that."

After poring through the latest earnings release from Goldman Sachs, Cramer was nothing short of shocked.
"Goldman Sachs dazzled," said an awed Jim Cramer. "I was truly shocked at how much money was made by equities, fixed income and commodities. Goldman has a return on equity of 15%, much much higher than people thought."
By the numbers, earnings excluding items jumped to $5.60 per share from $1.84 a share in the year-earlier period, with net revenues improving to $9.24 billion from $6.05 billion a year ago. The bank saw net earnings of $2.89 billion in the quarter, with an annualized return on equity of 16.5 percent
But that's not all.
"Goldman Sachs had a remarkable decline in compensation costs. The shareholders are getting the incremental gains now, not the people who work at Goldman, as the ratio of compensation and benefits to net revenues was 37.9%, compared to 42% the year before."
"That's shocking!" Cramer said again. The Mad Money host just couldn't contain himself – or be more impressed.
More from Cramer:
To Buy Dell or Not to Buy Dell?
Cramer: This Move Is in Its Infancy
Cramer: Is the Nat Gas Glut Here to Stay?
"These gains are not about a hedge fund that's dressed up as a bank, an accusation that used to get thrown at Goldman all the time. No, the gains are about regular business lines making a huge amount of money."
All told, Cramer sees upside.
"Tangible book value is now $134 per share, and this company once again deserves to sell at a 20% premium to tangible book like the old days. In short, I can see Goldman going to the 160s on this quarter."
Wait, there's more.
Results from JPMorgan suggest to Cramer that Goldman isn't just a single stock story – in fact, he thinks a trend may be underway in the sector. "JPMorgan did incredible numbers, too. Almost every single line but one, the net interest margin, was blow-away good," Cramer said.
What's the takeaway?
"More than a century ago, the German philosopher and stock sage Friedrich Nietzsche predicted that one day, there would be a re-valuation of all values. And after these earnings, I'm thinking Nietzsche was right, at least when it comes to the bank stocks, because the days of the radical re-valuation of banks are now upon us."

Happy New Year, everyone!!
So far, I've already learned something useless — and I thrive on useless information — which is that 2013 is the first year since 1987 in which all 4 digits are different. Huh.
I'll let you chew on that for a while . . .
OK. So, I haven't had much time to sit down and itemize all my deep and meaningful quandaries about life and love from the past year, but I have some perfectly valid reasons:
1. Hubs has been home for the duration of these holidays and he has this "thing" about me constantly being on technology (or making crafts, or anything that doesn't directly affect him in a positive way) whilst he's home. Seriously. We've got the next 50 years to get sick of each other, just let me play with my shit, mmmk? Ugh.
2. Holidays mean food. Food is distracting.
3. Holidays mean extended family. Extended family is annoying.
4. After nearly 2 months of the family being an astonishingly bright beacon of health, all hell broke loose. Sick children are fucking disgusting.
5. I've been going after jobs like a bull after a matador's ass. Customizing my awesomeness for each individual position is exhausting.
6. I painted THREE rooms in my house over the holidays. We moved into this entirely white house in December of 2010 and I'd been using the whole "but I'm working all the time" excuse not to paint. Well, I thought I'd call myself out on that bullshit. Since I'm not working, I finally wanted something DONE around the house. I'm most proud of this accent wall. I made these window edges my bitches, y'all!
7. And finally, I got a Wacom drawing tablet for Christmas. Soon, I hope to draw some more, well, productive drawings, but for right now, I've been busy testing out the easy subjects — getting a real feel for the hardware, ya know . . .
And I know you're all wondering with bated breath, so I'll just put it out there once and for all . . .
Yes, I do commissions.

Started today and feeling better already (believe it or not). Did a geat 20 minute cardio and following the BFL nutrition program. I have a real good upper body work out planned for tomorrow.
Taking before pics tonight when I get home from work, I hope that does'nt deflate my happy outlook. Who am I kidding, I know what I look like. That's why I started this in the first place!
I hope everyone is doing great.
Agghh ! I took my before pics last night. Boy was that a depressing eye opener. I'm looking forward to my 4 week pics, looking for some real changes.
Was called in to work early today so had to postpone upper body work out til tonight. I hate working out after work, but I am determined to follow this program to the tee.
I feel your pain!! My before pic was a real eye opener for me too. I guess clothes hide a alot. This is day 5 for me and I am very sore. Having a hard time walking down stairs. Its a good feeling though to know I am doing something about it. Stay strong!!!
Thanks ohiogirl49
I'm looking forward to that sore feeling, it means it's woking. You hang in there too. I know that there are going to be hard days ahead. Someone on another forum reminded me that those are the breakthrough days....the ones that mean the most. Hopefully people like you and I can help each other through. I'll be posting most days (to keep myself motivated) so I will look forward to your input. Have a great day!
Great uper body work out last night. Did a hard 20 minute cardio this morning. Today is my food cheat day....I know, I'm only three days in. Don't judge ;-) I have to make Sat cheat day cause I intend on enjoying some coctails on my cheat days and Sunday is my only day off to sleep in a bit. I'm afraid if I try to push with no cheat day until next Sat, I will get frustrated and quit.
I don't want to set myself up for failure.
I'm haveing aproblem with the food, I'm not finding the time to eat 6 times a day. I need to realy prepare for next week. That means some shopping and cooking tomorrow.
Hope everyone has a great day.
Ahh cheat day over and time to begin 6 good BFL days. Crazy thing is, I'm really looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to some intense workouts n lean healthy eating.
Although my cocktails, turkey on rye with mayo, and French fries were enjoyable, this morning's indigestion is no longer something that I am willing to accept on a daily basis.
I hope everyone has a terrific Labor Day weekend
